PERSONHOOD IS ABOLITION / History of Personhood Legislation in South Carolina ( 1998 – 2021 )

– Here in South Carolina, we have advocated passage of State Personhood Legislation continuously for over 24 years since 1998.

– The current legislation in the 2021-2022 SC Legislature is called the Personhood Act of South Carolina (S.381 and S.1335 / H.3568 and H.5401).

– South Carolina Personhood Legislation up through 2022 has recognized the Creator God-given, unalienable right to life of every human being as a “Person” beginning at fertilization, in South Carolina Law.

Re: South Carolina

ENDING/ABOLISHING CHILD-MURDER (HOMICIDE) BY “ABORTION”

SC STATE LAW ALREADY DEFINES “MURDER” AS THE KILLING OF ANY PERSON WITH MALICE AFORETHOUGHT

SC Code of Laws, Section 16-3-10
__________________________________________________

The killing of persons with malice aforethought is ALREADY defined in statute as the crime of “Murder” in South Carolina Law, Section 16-3-10.

So what is necessary to provide due process and equal protection for the right to life of ALL pre-birth human beings, beginning at fertilization, and the criminalization of their murder in SC ?  Add the definition of “Person” to Title 16, Chapter 3, of the SC Code of Laws, to include ANY and ALL human beings (No Exceptions) beginning at fertilization.

This would Establish Biblical Justice.

Human Life Begins at Conception. Period.

Anything less will likely PERPETUATE the murder of certain pre-birth human beings in South Carolina, at least in some measure, in some form(s) or manner(s).
___________________________________________________

This is present State Law in South Carolina:

SC Code of Laws

Title 16
Chapter 3

Offenses Against The Person

Section 16-3-10.

“Murder” defined.

Murder is the killing of any person with malice aforethought, either express or implied.

So, the Murder of “Persons” is ALREADY a crime in South Carolina. What is needed in Title 16, Chapter 3 is the addition of the definition of “Person” to include ANY and ALL human beings (No Exceptions) beginning at fertilization.

Period. No Exceptions to God’s Commandment Not to Commit Murder.

It is God’s Will to Establish Justice.
